The Emory University Division of Animal Resources (DAR) Veterinary Externship Program is designed to provide interested third and fourth year veterinary medical students the opportunity to experience the field of Laboratory Animal Medicine. Laboratory Animal Medicine is an AVMA-recognize specialty that combines clinical medicine, preventive medicine, pathology, recognition/development of animal models, regulatory oversight, and collaborative/independent biomedical research. The Emory University DAR oversees all aspects of laboratory animal care on campus. Species typically maintained include mice, rats, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, spiny mice, ferrets, rabbits, amphibians, fish, finches, and pigs. Students will observe and participate in the many of the daily responsibilities of a laboratory animal veterinarian primarily by shadowing the current residents and through interactions with the faculty veterinarians. The student will gain knowledge in the following areas:
- Proper handling, restraint, and associated techniques used in working with laboratory animal species
- Diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases in laboratory animals
- Anesthetic management and perioperative care of laboratory animals
- The basic tenets of regulatory oversight
- Typical laboratory animal species and their anatomy, physiology
- Animal models of human disease
- IACUC function

Okay, now that we got that out of the way, and hopefully grabbed your attention, here’s a bit more detail about our practices:
Meet Dr. David Eddleman
A native of Missouri, I graduated from the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine in 1990. I started out at a bustling veterinary clinic in southern Indiana before taking a position in Muncie, Indiana. The chance of a lifetime opened up to me when South Anderson Veterinary Clinic was posted for sale in 2000. In 2000, I became the official owner of SAVC. In 2009, I was unexpectedly approached about opening a second practice. And as every piece fell perfectly into place, I opened Country Critters Veterinary Hospital in the Spring of 2010. We even had an appointment the first day we were open. Today, both practices are thriving and growing quickly, with an all-star TEAM and great clients.
I am always looking to bring another veterinarian into the SAVC/CCVH family, even for internships and externships. I believe great things happen when everyone is willing to roll up their sleeves and work together with a common goal in mind. In our daily practice, we strive to care for each animal as our own. Because we believe that the pet-owner bond is precious and that each pet and person deserves to be loved.
If you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me directly (or my Hospital Administrator Allison).
I hope to hear from you soon!

This experience is an intensive laboratory animal experience at a medium sized public university. The breadth of our program supports both rodent and non-rodent studies, encompassing various research needs including metabolic diseases, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and behavioral diseases affecting human urban populations. Additionally, our collaboration with the local VA hospital includes research important to veterans, including both warfare illness/injury and behavioral diseases that affect US veterans.
